iSearch PHP question #1

My website has an iSearch box on every page. Visitors type the subject in
the box and click enter to run the search. Works great. I'd like to be
able to add some hyperlinked text that will initiate a subject search.
Example: if you click on a persons name, it will search the site for
evrything pertaining to that name.

Here's a page from the site. You'll see a box with band member's names. I
want these names to be hyperlinks to trigger the search without having to
type anything in the search box:
http://www.motorcityrock.com/bands/lordz/lordz.html

Is this possible?

Thanks!

Maybe this is the wrong newsgroup for this question?

Sorry!

There is nothing which is not possible, don´t you think. Somebody did it how
you can see it in you example ;)

Thanks Lars! I'm new to PHP, so I'm not quite sure what to try.

Sorry to all if this is a simple newbie question.

Try it like this...

for example the link of The Bowery:

http://www.motorcityrock.com/isearch...s=The%20Bowery

Then you get to the searchengine with the query s=The%20Bowery
s will be the var vor ISearch...know what i mean ?

Thank you Lars!

I'm new to PHP, but I can see it is quite powerful.

I think I'll redo my entire site with PHP and MySQL as the backbone.

Time to study...

Thanks again!

Lars
